Tax, France 

 
 

The tax department, headed by Laurence Clot, advises clients in all areas of corporate and individual taxes, including tax litigation

Our expertise is based on in-depth knowledge of our clients’ businesses and their specific tax and legal requirements (including regulatory aspects), enabling us to assist our clients in tax planning and management of their tax strategy in a worldwide context.

In this respect, the strength of our international network allows us to assist our clients on issues relating not only to French tax law but also to international tax matters.

Our tax team advises on exceptional transactions (implementation of tax strategy during pre- and post-acquisition, IP tax planning, outsourcing, joint ventures, intra-group restructuring,  simplification or rationalization of IT structures). We also assist our clients on a day-to-day basis,  managing annual tax formalities and compliance, validating individual and corporate tax returns, managing tax consolidation regime, dealing with direct (corporate income tax) and indirect taxation (VAT, local taxes such as Economical Contribution for Companies, etc.), managing tax losses and deferred tax liabilities.

We advise our clients in their relationship with the French tax authorities, either in pre-litigation or litigation, or for the granting of tax rulings (in the context of cross-border transaction or transfer of tax losses etc.).  

Our tax team currently offers its clients an in-depth expertise of all specific aspects of different types of transactions, in the following sectors:
